Safia was the new girl at Kevin’s job in April 2019. They didn't have a real conversation until the office headed to Aspen for a conference in June. Over a slice of Beau Jos pizza, they traded barbs about New York style pizza versus Chicago deep dish (which is really just a casserole, honestly). A rivalry was formed that day, initially over whose hometown (and woebegotten baseball team) was better. Over the next 2 years, they fought like an old married couple, which their coworkers swore they would someday be. Once they were made docket partners, an unlikely friendship was formed. Finally Safia asked herself out on a date with Kevin because Kevin was too afraid of HR. They’ve since set aside their differences (i.e. Kevin admitted that New York style pizza is better), found a basketball team that actually wins things to love together (forgetting about baseball entirely), found their dream jobs, and most importantly, have built a family with their furbabies, Albie, Benji and the little baby Maisy.
